“…The residual pollution of pesticides in the environment had attracted more and more attention. Among them, the pollution of groundwater by pesticides was particularly affected according to report by researchers (Kumari & John, 2019;Shokoohi et al, 2019;Xiao et al, 2019). The principal factor affecting the pollution of groundwater by pesticides was the migration and persistence of pesticides in the soil (Hearon et al, 2019;López-Ruiz et al, 2019;Y.…”

The adsorption, degradation and leaching characteristics of chlorothalonil in two representative soil were studied using simulated soil degradation and soil column leaching. The results showed that the adsorption of chlorothalonil in clay and sandy soil can be characterized by the Freundlich equation. The adsorption coefficient (K) was 6.7158 and 1.2568, respectively. Both soils were physical adsorption. The residual degradation kinetics of chlorothalonil in both soils met the first-order kinetics degradation equation. As the concentration of chlorothalonil increased, the higher the residual amount of chlorothalonil in the soil, the slower the degradation rate and the longer the half-life. In the soil column, chlorothalonil was not easy to move and migrate in the two soil columns. The highest residual residues were in the range of 0 to 10 cm (the topmost), and then a decrease in order. The correlation analysis showed that the adsorption and leaching of chlorothalonil in the two soils may be affected by a combination of factors such as soil organic matter content, clay content, cation exchange capacity, and soil pH value, it posed a great risk of groundwater contamination, so should be given serious attention.

“…The frequencies of pesticide residues detected were higher in samples purchased from rural markets than in samples from urban markets. Similar reports showed higher pesticide residue concentrations in vegetables collected from the farms than bought from the markets and supermarkets (Sapbamrer and Hongsibsong, 2014;Kumari and John, 2019). This phenomenon might be explained from recent or just after cultivated produce as most of common consume vegetable and fruits growing in the rural areas.…”

Multiple pesticides are used in vegetable and fruit cultivation worldwide, including in Thailand. A survey series on pesticide residues in vegetable and fruit samples sourced from markets in urban and rural areas of upper northern Thailand during 2007–2013. Sixteen different vegetables (n = 412) and 11 different fruits (n = 301) were analyzed for 43 pesticide residues including 20 organophosphates (OP), 6 synthetic pyrethroids, 12 carbamates, 2 abamectins, imidacloprid, dithiocarbamates, and carbendazim. Out of the 412 vegetable samples, 235 (57%) had pesticide residues and 185 (45%) had pesticide residues that exceeded the maximum residue limits (MRLs). For the fruit samples, 245 (81%) of the 301 samples had pesticide residues and 165 (55%) had pesticide residues that exceeded the MRLs. The vegetable and the fruit samples had multiple synthetic pyrethroid residues and higher levels of residues than OP and other pesticides. Among the OP pesticides, chlorpyrifos was the most frequently detected pesticide. Residue detection in the rural samples was higher than that in the urban samples. The present study found very high numbers of samples to be above the MRLs: 45% of the vegetable samples and 55% of the fruit samples. Therefore, multi-residue methods are proposed as a regular monitoring system to ensure coverage of the multiple pesticides that are commonly used in agriculture and secure the national food safety policy.

“…The interest in the use of polyphenolic substances as plant protection products has been due to decades of uninterrupted and indiscriminate use of synthetic pesticides and fungicides which have not only led to the development of resistant strains in microorganisms, but have also resulted in the presence of toxic residues in the soil [52] and in crops [53,54] used for human consumption and therefore substantially affecting the quality of human health and the environment [55][56][57].…”
